      what colour label is on your tranny case?

      If you can't find it/it's not there anymore, just use redline MTL (70W80 GL-4 i think it is).

      *edit: found this:
      Green Label: MT-90 (75W90 GL-4)
      Red Label: D4 ATF
      No Label: MTL (70W80 GL-4)

          I'd say redline mtl
          What does everyone else think?

          edit**: where's it leaking from?
